Suppose a small cannonball weighing 16 pounds is shot vertically upward, with an initial velocity v0 = 350 ft/s. the answer to the question "how high does the cannonball go? " depends on whether we take air resistance into account. if air resistance is ignored and the positive direction is upward, then a model for the state of the cannonball is given by d2s/dt2 = −g (equation (12) of section 1.3). since ds/dt = v(t) the last differential equation is the same as dv/dt = −g, where we take g = 32 ft/s2. if air resistance is incorporated into the model, it stands to reason that the maximum height attained by the cannonball must be less than if air resistance is ignored. (a) assume air resistance is proportional to instantaneous velocity. if the positive direction is upward, a model for the state of the cannonball is given by m dv dt = −mg − kv, where m is the mass of the cannonball and k > 0 is a constant of proportionality. suppose k = 0.0025 and find the velocity v(t) of the cannonball at time t. v(t) = ft/s (b) use the result obtained in part (a) to determine the height s(t) of the cannonball measured from ground level. s(t) = ft find the maximum height attained by the cannonball. (round your answer to two decimal places

The 5-kg cylinder is initially at rest when it is placed in contact with the wall b and the rotor at a. if the rotor always maintains a constant clockwise angular velocity v = 6 rad> s, determine the initial angular acceleration of the cylinder. the coefficient of kinetic friction at the contacting surfaces b and c is mk = 0.2.

There are weak or strong attractive forces between atoms of liquids with a high viscosity

What is the relationship between atmospheric pressure and the density of gas particles in an area of increasing pressure? (2 points) as air pressure in an area increases, the density of the gas particles in that area decreases. as air pressure in an area increases, the density of the gas particles in that area increases. as air pressure in an area increases, the density of the gas particles in that area remains constant. as air pressure in an area increases, the density of the gas particles in that area increases and decreases in an alternating pattern. 3. which of the following correctly describes a way in which earth's atmosphere interacts with the geosphere?
